I'm going to be in Philadelphia soon and am setting up some meetings.  I've been doing my research and it looks like there have been several stings in the last few months.  Does anyone have any info on this?  Several stories specifically mention online stings.  Am I being paranoid?

PM her reviewers for further piece of mind. Stings are successful  b/c guys/gals don't do their required due diligence. Do outcall if you are particularly LE phobic.

Stay away from bucks county.  You should be ok in the city or in South Jersey. Try to stick to ladies with reviews.

Lots of us ladies who host a permanent locale have our incalls downtown because it;s the most central location.  But outcall may make you feel safer.  Just do your research like everyone says and good luck.  there's a lot of good talent here of you just look....

xoxoxo, Alexandra

I once read a phenomenal article by a fellow provider about why screening benefits both the provider *and* the client. I recommend taking the time to read the whole thing here (http://misserinblack.com/2014/06/24/lets-talk-about-screening/), but the TL/DR version is this:

Screening helps us to make sure that you aren't LE, creepy, flaky, or dangerous. But it also shows that we ourselves aren't LE. How? Screening, checking a person's references, and working around your schedule takes hours-- sometimes days (depending on factors like your response time to each email)-- of work... Per client. Vice police officers, on the other hand, want to make their sting quota and go home at the end of the day. The likelihood that someone who wants to breeze through and arrest 4-10 clients a day goes through this process is pretty slim. Basically, you WANT a provider to screen you because it shows they are able to put in the time and effort for each client and, thus, are probably not LE.

Another good resource is P411. Look for providers who have given "Okay"s to clients-- it means a couple of things:
1. The provider has gone through the process of joining P411. Someone who was already a member vouched for this provider and the provider has given her personal information to the site for age verification and screening.
2. Clients were comfortable enough with the provider's session to want her to vouch for them in the future. That usually means no arrest was made.
3. Some providers will even give discounts to P411 members. While it isn't mandatory, P411 encourages providers to do so with credits toward better advertising.

Hopefully this helped! If you're interested, I'll be available on and off for the next few weeks and should be able to fit you into my schedule. Otherwise have a fantastic trip!

Warmest regards,

L. Bucks Co is great as long as you stay away from the backpage 'resorts' along  Route 1 in Trevose & Bensalem.  
Anywhere can be a problem if you draw attraction to yourself.

That has been done with me before and I can attest that the reviewers that were contacted did not like. Besides, I don't see them giving info, and I hope they don't, because you have NO reviews. How would they know who you are. JackDunphy is about everything else, but contacting the ladies reviewers.  

Ask he lady if it's okay for you to do that before reaching out to someone who reviewed her.

The pm system was designed so that hobbyists/members could contact each other. Don't you contact other providers for certain things? So it ok for you to do it and not us?  

One can only get so much info by the reviews. Guys get TONS of info by pm and the guys that don't like to use the pm system, don't have to. Its called "choice" my dear

Reviewers can be detailed as they want when writing a review. In fact TER suggest they do.  

Yes, I do contact providers ONLY when I am given the info from the gentleman who wants to see me. If you read my reviews I have NOTHING whatsoever to hide. My reviews are GREAT!

The same way we ladies ask for references I feel fellas should do the same. Just ask if it's okay to contact someone who has reviewed me. Just as I would the same if I am a requested by a gentleman who has reviews on his profile. The polite thing to do is ask.

As a reviewer I would suggest you not give info to another hobbyist who has no reviews, because how do you know if they are LE or not? Not saying at all the OP is LE, but we need to keep the community safe and that is the number one why we have sites like TER. This issue has been discussed on the boards before. Most guys don't like to be contacted regarding a review they wrote. Yes, I've had potential clients contact gentlemen who have reviewed me and my clients not like it at all. The OP is an example of someone I would not want, nor would suggest, contact a reviewer for more details. He has no reviews! Who is he??

 
There is a lot of validity in what I'm stating, so please don't be so quick to come at neck on the board. It's sad people can't have a civil discussion without  having to be rude and nasty. One of the main reasons I rarely post.  

This is my 2 cents and I care not to argue back and forth about it

NO...reviews do NOT speak for themselves. MANY guys back down off their reviews by pm b/c they don't want a gal blowing them up. TER designed the pm system so people could communicate WITHOUT nosey people like YOU from knowing what they were saying.

We DONT need your permission at all. What are you a dictator? It is NONE of your business what 2 members here chat about. NONE.  

You have NO idea what MOST guys like or don't like re: the pm system. You can only speak for a few guys that may have said something to you and my bet is that some of them use the system.

Writing reviews does not mean one is NOT LE either. There are numerous fake reviews that do not get taken down for various reasons. Some of them could have been written by LE. We have no way of knowing.

You are just making yourself look like a fool and no nothing with your drivel. MIND your own business!

END OF MESSAGE

My OP was on the mark and 100% accurate, unless accuracy bothers you some how? She threw down first but of course, no response to her from you for her foolish comments.

Have a great time shining your own armor this weekend! Thanks for playing!

There absolutely is a place for back channeling. I do it all the time. But I would hardly call her posts a throw down. She's simply misguided and wrong.  

So I don't disagree with your position. And I'm not white knighting, I'm simply calling you out for acting like an asshole. Although acting like an asshole seems to be your thing. And that says a whole lot more about you than it does the people you flame. Thankfully that's something you have to live with, not me.

Have a nice day fuckface

i agree as well.  Tone it down

"Have a nice day fuckface "

Your not supposed to use real names.  She had an opinion and i personally have reached out to other reviews of girls i'd like to see, so your point right.  But the point Fatelvis is making is her posts was offering her opinion and every post after that from you was a attack, like she was insulting you.  Relax, this is supposed to be fun

And great job you did destroying any point you were trying to make with the dick, asshole and now fuckface comments. Typical WK. Gets trounced in an argument and has to resort to name calling. Roflmao

The first thing I did was say that I agree with you. And I didn't feel the need to weigh in until you started acting like a douchebag.  What a sad, miserable life you must lead lol

And we are all now well aware of your lack of balls to respond to the girl at all when she says guys shouldn't pm so no need to keep reminding us.

Maybe next time a girl says something so stupid you will muster the courage to counter that claim.

Nah, doubt it. Then you would lose your WK status and I know how important that is in your little world here.

He is making quite a name for himself here.  I can imagine he's a joy in person

Plus, if a lady is unreviewed she wont get far with reference request, just like you shouldn't get far with your questioning of other hobbyists since you have no reviews, track record, r any lady coming to your defense.

You are so quick on the defense despite your complete lack of reputation so it seems like you are the kind of wannabe client that asks inappropriate things like "so what's her incall address?" or "did you happen to get her real name and can you give it to me?"
